It seems that a very fortunate man received a lifetime of great advice, collected the best of the best, and turned it into this book. A wonderful wealth of knowledge is wrapped up in 113 pages of a tiny paperback by Rodolfo Costa, called Advice My Parents Gave Me: and Other Lessons I Learned from My Mistakes.
